Tg(Lcn2-Tgfa)1372Eps

The transgene contains the proximal 3-kb promoter fragment of the rat lipocalin 2 gene (also called neu-related lipocalin, Nrl) followed by a transforming growth factor alpha (Tgfa) mini-gene comprising a cDNA fragment encoding the 5' two-thirds of the the rat TGFalpha precursor joined to the rat genomic Tgfa sequence containing the 3' part of exon 4 through the beginning of the untranslated exon 6.
